Will comment later on tonight, but I have to say that a lot of them are of the “Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?” variety. And yeah that’s right Kamiya Hiroshi was the actual winner for radio personality and Jun Fukuyama for overseas (thank christ it’s not Aya Hirano) so there’s that mystery solved. Again more to come.

Update: Okay all I really wanted to touch upon were the two wins for Macross F in the supporting cast categories. First of all, no, Sheryl Nome was not a supporting cast member and by god with how rabid her fans are I wouldn’t be surprised if there was some serious griping going on at 2ch and various places around the western anime community that are aware of this. It’s just as bad as Rie Kugimiya’s “supporting” win for Nagi last year.

And then there’s Sugita Tomokazu for Leon Mishima. Leon as a character to me was just a guy that popped up every now and then to act sinister and to exude an aura of distrust and I’d honestly barely call him a supporting character. He was more like a tertiary character until the final arc of the series. Honestly if that’s all it took for Sugita Tomokazu to win the award then they might as well have given it to Norio Wakamoto for Charles Di Brittania or something. Same deal, character pops up, exudes menace and acts sinster with his master plan eventually does something big, but ultimately is a surprisingly small player in the series final events. To me Leon just wasn’t enough to put him ahead of other supporting male reasons this season. Not even close.
